Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Kabinett Fuder 6 Riesling
Mosel, Germany
Wow. Just wow. What a nose. Unreal confectionary and lime rock candy. So so pungent. Just like a constant dream of fresh pulverized rocks and lime zest. Palate is lean, proxies and very closed but has gorgeous apricot fruit, stuffing and concentration. Unreal purity and texture. Seems like it could also be 2-3% corked. Let’s see. This was like 2% corked but it’s still a 9.1

This is a crazy wine.
On open it tastes watered down.
An hour in its very interesting.
Nose: ultra fine mineral dust. A memory of lemon flower. Really gorgeous. A GG quality nose.
Palate: filigreed. Elegant. Mineral. The memory of a classic mosel wine.
Needs an hour decant but I’m glad I had this. Classic in its own way.

Pours more yellow than previous MM Kabinet Rieslings I've tried. Truly golden like a California Chardonnay!
Nose is luscious yet delicate. No petrol/diesel notes at all on this one. Clean, sensual, you want to make out with it not drink it!
The nose leads into the mouth - again sensual, supple, luscious texture.
Strong myer lemon acid zing on the finish and it stays there for a good long distance.
I consider it a must pair wine (Schweinshöchen anyone?). Not the reisling for drinking with girlfriends/boyfriends/no friends on a Saturday night.

A very dry Kabinett. Bright and lively. Floral on the nose, grapefruit and mineral on the palate. Excellent as an aperitif or with food!
